meeting at the throat and opening over
full vest and a sash belt The skirt is at
tached to fitted sleeveless lining, on to which
the vest and sash are also sewed, and the cos
tune is then completed by the jacket In
this instance it is made of ecru pongee
striped with fine lines of navy blue the vest
and sash being Of navy-blue surah. The
ends of the sash are drawn together and fin
ished with silk tassel. The collar band of
blue velvet is cut very high, as will be
noticed is the case in all the models shown.
The hat worn with this costume is of dark
blue straw trimmed with bows of mixed
blue and white ribbons, the brim under
faced with blue velvet.
The remaining small model is intended for
little girl of four, and is very suitable to
fine washing materials, such as zephyrs,
chambrays, satteens, and the many other
dainty fabrics that are to be had now in such
abundance for childrens wear. In this
pretty little dress the material used was fine
French satteen with a white ground on
which were tiny figures of delicate pink,
blue and brown, trimmed with bands of
embroidery to match. The hat was a be
coming round shape of dark blue straw, with
low square crown bound round with a
band of navy-blue velvet and ornamented
in front with three large rosettes of white
lace-a style of hat very much in vogue at
present, and that is equally as pretty for red
or brown hats.
Black hose and shoes or low ties are uni
versally worn by children on all occasions
and with all costumes.
Up to the age of four little boys wear kilt
skirts and jackets, the kits buttoned to
pleated shirt waists of white linen or figured
percale. In summer white pique or linen
kits take the place of the warmer cloth for
dressy wear, lovely suit consisting of kilt
and blouse of cream-white flannel. Bright
silk ties in shades of yellow, blue or bright
red add a touch of color to the costume
Their hats are broad-brimmed sailors, turned
up all round and trimmed with a band of
ribbon or velvet with ends falling at the
back.
Older boys wear knee-trousers and jackets
of blue, brown or gray mixed cloths, crossed
by checks or lines of color, either in the
pleated Norfolk or round jacket STYLES.
Dress suits are of fine blue cloth or brown
corkscrew, trimmed with black silk braid
and buttons. Hats for boys over six are of
straw, either fancy braids in which colors
are woven or of white mackinaw, and are
shaped very much after the styles worn by
heir fathers.

Dubois in the Mines.

Hon. Fred r. Dubois, who passed
through Spokane yesterday, is under
stood to be opposed to the annexation
and segregation plans for the disposition
of Northern or any part of Idaho, and
will use his influence in congress to
defeat every move in that direction.
While Washington Territory has always
been cordial in meeting the desires Of
Northern Idaho in its efforts for aunexa-
ton with us, we concede that it is a mat
ter over which the citizens of Idaho have
the first say, and, beyond the manifesto
ton of our willingness to receive the
portion of the territory willing to unite
with us, we. as commonwealth, have no
right to interfere. Still, as citizens of
the nation, and impressed with the de-
STABILITY of symmetrical and natural, as
opposed to artificial and forged boundar-
les, besides maintaining the rights Of
maiorities in a considerable region of
territory, we are just as earnestly in
favor OF the annexation of Northern
Idaho to-day as We were four years
ago.--Spokane Chronicle.
Mr.. Dubois If now in the Occur
d'Alene, and from a recent conversation
with him We are led to believe that be
has come out fatfooted against the an
nexatia or segregation Of Idaho in any
form, but is ready to aid tho new project
of dividing up Montana in order to at.
tach the western part Of it to Idaho
Just how this latter scheme is to be
accomplished remains to be seen. That
it has some earnest advocates we are
aware, but, however desirable it may be
there is no possibility whatever of &c.
complishing it unless the people ef the
district in Montana to be affected by the
change willingly unite with Idaho to
bring it about. Until it can be ascer
tanned that this can be done, we are not
ready to give up our hope Of early state
hood by annexation with Washington
Territory. The mere statement of a
scheme to unite the mining portion of
Montana with Idaha does noe suffice to
convince us that it will have sufficient
backing to make it successful, but If the
people of Montana think favorably Of it
they can well afford to come out openly
and frankly and avow it. Unless they
do this all talk of dividing Montana is
idle and useless. The tail cannot wag
the dog. Montana is more populous
than Idaho, and the capital city Of the
former and the capital city Of tho latter
are important factors in movement q
this kind. 1t will take almost a unaui
nous expressi of the people Of both
territories to influence these capitals, anc
this expression must be obtained before
practical and substantial movement car
be made to carry out the new PROPOSE
tion.-Coeur dAlene Sun.

Field and Forest Fires,

SAN Francisco, Oct. 1.-THE Cen
trail portion of California has been visited
by a devastating epidemic of field during
the past three days, and in Sonoma and
Santa Cruz country there is still great
danger. Not even an approximate esti-
mate of the heavy damages can be made
at present, but that it will run into
millions is probable. Miles Of fencing,
scores of dwellings and farm buildings
and acres Of timber have been swept
away by the fiory blast Cattle and vine.
yards innumerable have been killed or
injured, and thousands of acres Of graz
ing land blackcned and denuded of their
stock subsistence. Several towns in
Sonoma are threatened, AMI hundreds of
farmers families are left homeless and
in need of immediate aid. The first fires
reported were in the lumber district OF
the Santa Cruz mountains, where they
are of anuual occuranee Then came a
devastating sweep over the hills about
Hayward's aud Niles 10 Alameda county
and reports are still coming in OF fright
full distractions going on in Sonoma. 1t
is the end of the dry and warm season in
California, and all wild vegetation, be-
sides the stubble Of harvest fields, is in a
fit condition to spread the flames.

Gov. Stevenson.

The Occur d'Alene San, after quoting
jonas W. Browns resolutions struggled in
rs part Of the proceedings Of the Namp'
railroad jubilee at Boise City, and had
passed by about dozen who happened
around tho speakers stand, and heard b,
about dozen more, while the balance O.
the two thousand had no knowledge of thu
introduction Of said resolutions till publish
ed. has the following just comments, ant
charges hard upon Gov. Stevenson in tn,
following manner:
We do not believe that the people OIL
South Idaho are so unreasonable as tt
pass such trash as the above in opposi-
ton to the almost unanimous wish and
desire Of the people of North Idaho to b.
separated. The entire opposition ele-
ment OF South Idaho seems to be con-
trollcd by one man, and that man is Gov
Stevenson, who has the Delegate tc
congress itch. The people Of the foul
Northern counties should keep this anti
segregation agitation Of the governor in
view for the campaign next year, and
show him that they are earnest in their
desire for annexation. II will also be
remembered that the governor has made
no denial of the dispatch sent out from
Shoshone recently OF meeting between
himself, Delegate Dubois and Senator
Hearst, which Mr.. Hearst pronounced
absolutely without foundation. IF Gov
Stevenson expects to gain the confidence
Of the people or North Idaho he mus
turn over a new political leaf and reform
himself.
The Governor il determined. il possible
to induce the people to endorse his telegraph
advice to Cleveland, to no. sign the an
nexation bill. 1t would seem to = locker
on. that at present he and Dubois are play
in through the same nozzle. But they
won't put the fire out, before they are both
buried in their own'ruins.

Mr.. Dubois as Reported In the
''Record."

The Occur d'Alene Record says of Mr.,
Dubois:
''ln his opinion segregation means ami.
hilation. He believes that Idaho's claims
to statehood will be recognized as those of
Montana or Washington, and he is natural
" opposed to any measure which would
deprive the territory OF any portion of its
present area. Mr.. Dubois believes that
when congress is ready to admit the terri
tories, the population Of Idaho will be 90
near the 10000 required TO constitute a
sengressional district that there will DO no
doubt Of her admission. He says that Mr..
Tools will never introduce any bill provid.
ing for the annexation of the Pan. handle to
Montana. The Montana scheme sleeps the
sleep that knows no waking. Stewart is
the only man to be feared. 1t is his ambi.
ticn to be instrumental in building up .
great state by attaching to decaying Neva-
de- the major part OF the rich and rising
territory Of Idaho. south Idaho is unit
in opposition to the plan, and yet Mr..
Dubois believes that Stewart will lobby it
through if he can get the four Northern
counties cut eli. With them Idaho has q
brilliant future. Without them she will be
compelled to hide her diminished head
beneath the cold wing of weak and corrupt
commonwealth !"

Memorial Being Circulated In South
Idaho.
To the Honorable Senate and House
If Representatives of the United

TO the Honorable Senate and House
If Representatives of the United
States:
We the undersigned, citizens of the
county Of. ana KERN,
tory of Idaho, most respectfully and
earnestly protest against any legislation
that would divide Idaho Territory, or
annex any portion of Idaho Territory to
any other territory or state, and urge the
following reasons:
1st. Idaho has an area Of eighty-six
thousand square miles OF land, which
nav bo classified nearly as follows:
One-third good agricultural land; one
A,ird mineral and timber land, and one.
third grazing lands.
Fad. Idaho has at present resident
population Of bout one hundred thous
and people, who are Industrious, intelli-
gent and law abiding citizens.
3rd. We have three trunk lines OF
railroad running through our territory,
viz: Northern Pacific railroad at the
north; Oregon Short Line at tho south
and Utah & Northern at the east, with
several branch railroads connecting with
the main lines. With the rapid increase
of population which these railroads are
bringing us daily, we confidently believe
that We will have resident and pros
MARQUIS population of not less than two
hundred thousand in two years from this
time.
9TH. The natural resources OF Idaho
for farming, stock raising, mining for the
precious metals, milling and manutactur-
ing arc all good, and when properly
developed and utilized will sustain a
population Of several million people.
9Th. We have erected magnificent
Capital Building with all the modern i'm
provements also a splendid Insane
Asylum, both at our own expense, With
out aid from the general government.
9Th. The financial condition Of the
territory is good, her evidence OF indebt-
edness selling readily at premium,
and her debt small and fully provided
for.
7th. Our Code of Law will compare
favorably with those Of any state or ter
ritory, and our free school system. which
provides free education to the children
Of rich and poor alike, surras;es many OF
the states Of the Union.
9th. The states aud territories west Of
the Rocky mountains, as they now STAND
are each larger than the states OF New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island
Connecticut, New Jersey and New York
combined, and each are capable Of sup
porting as many people when properly
developed. And to reduce the number
by apnsxing idaho to other states or
territories to satisfy the whims OF a few
politicians and Spectators would be do
ing great injustice to our present popu-
lation, and, in the near future, deprivine
tho people Of the Pacific coast Of just
representation in congress.
9th. Idaho possesses at this time al
the requisites Tor a rich and prosperous
state, and will soon have ample popula
ton for statehood. Our people are Law
abiding, prosperous and contented, anc
We ask in the name Of justice and right
that Idaho may remain intact, and that
no portion be given to any other state OIL
territory, and your petitioners will eve'
pray.
